IMPORTANT:
Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle
inventory. Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider this requirement
to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry
process.
Subject
The software programmed into the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) control module on about 50,600 of the above vehicles may cause the rear brakes to
lock up during certain braking conditions. This could result in a loss of vehicle control and cause a crash without warning.
Repair
The ABS control module must be reprogrammed (flashed).
